Resumen:
Most of the Supply Chain (SC) design models have focused on the integration problem, where links among nodes have to be determined in order to allow an efficient operation of the whole system. In this level, all the problem elements are modeled like black boxes, and the optimal solution determines the nodes allocation and their capacity, and the connections among nodes. In this work, a MILP model is proposed where decisions about plant design are simultaneously taken with operational and planning variables. The model considers unit duplication and the allocation of storage of discrete sizes. The solved examples show the impact of plant design in the overall SC operation.
